# About Tic-Tac-Toe Bot
This bot allows you to play tic-tac-toe in a private message with the bot.
Multiple games can simultaneously be played by different users, each playing
against the computer.
The bot only responds to messages starting with **@tictactoe** or **@ttt**.
### Commands
**@tictactoe new** (or **@ttt new**) will start a new game (but not if you are
already playing a game.) You must type this first to start playing!
**@tictactoe help** (or **@ttt help**) will return a help function with valid
commands and coordinates.
**@tictactoe quit** (or **@ttt quit**) will quit from the current game.
**@tictactoe <coordinate>** (or **@ttt <coordinate>**) will make a move at the
entered coordinate. For example, **@ttt 1,1** . After this, the bot will make
its move, or declare the game over if the user or bot has won.
Coordinates are entered in a (row, column) format. Numbering is from top to
bottom and left to right.
Here are the coordinates of each position. When entering coordinates, parentheses
and spaces are optional.
(1, 1) | (1, 2) | (1, 3)
(2, 1) | (2, 2) | (2, 3)
(3, 1) | (3, 2) | (3, 3)
Invalid commands will result in an "I don't understand" response from the bot,
with a suggestion to type **@tictactoe help** (or **@ttt help**).
